A while back I promised I would write a report on the service we used, the adultoutsourcing designer/general webmaster.
The kid who was assigned to us was a great young man, very much into his work and was trying very hard to get the jobs we asked done right, that I want to say first :)
In general, their service is pretty good, they have a few people catching up with you to ask if you are happy with your worker and if there is anything he/she needs to improve to keep you happy (sexual favors were not included:nyanya: ).
Then there is the work itself:
We though the quality of the product was not exactly what we were in need of, as far as standards are concerned, we need a higher level of quality. Also, the work was done not fast enough. On the one hand that could be logic, as in th etwo weeks we used the guy, it is all new and people need to get accustomed to their job. On the other hand - and this is why we did not continue - there is a shitload of designers available (myself included) who can do the job a lot faster, a daily visit on GFY will tell you there are many kids working a whole day for the price of a happy meal (myself NOT included :redance: ).
So, why did we not continue our free trial into a paid worker?
We thought the guy worked well, a little slow and the quality was not up to our needs. Note that they have special designers instead of general webmasters as well, we had the general webmaster.
We also figured that for 800$/month, we rather hire a designer when we really need one, than having one 8 hours a day and try to keep him busy with stuff he could do, as he could not do everything. I learned that I can actually do a lot that others can't, or think they can but suck at it, lol.
My rating.....
Skills; 5 out of 10 (but note they do have 'real' designers too at a higher rate)
Knowlegde of the bizz: 4.5 (I did have to explain a lot about what is what in the beginning, like what is an AVS and stuff like that. I think if you offer adult workers, they should know what is what)
Commitment; 8 out of 10
Price; 5.5 out of 10 (this is just because for the same price, a lot of kids will help you too, otherwise it would have been better)
If you need somebody to run errants or have the patience to get them accustomed to your company, they're perfect, I would however try to get somebody who already works there, instead of a new worker.
We cancelled the 30 day trial after 2 weeks, as I already knew we would not continue and I would not want to waste another 2 weeks of their time when they could place the worker elsewhere.
